**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to revise the plan of care for one of three sampled residents
(Resident 1), who was at high risk for falls, following episodes of getting up unassisted on 4/8/2025.
This deficient practice had the potential to increase Resident 1's risk for falls and injury.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the
facility on [DATE], with diagnoses of history of falling, right femur (thigh bone) fracture (break in the bone),
and encounter for orthopedic (the branch of medicine dealing with the correction of deformities of bones or
muscles) after care, dementia (progressive state of decline in mental abilities), osteoarthritis (OA- a
progressive disorder of the joints caused by a gradual loss of cartilage [connective tissue that protects the
joints/bones])abnormalities of gait (manner of walking) and mobility (ability to move freely), and generalized
muscle weakness.
During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS- resident assessment tool), dated 4/1/2025, the
MDS indicated Resident 1 had moderately impaired cognition (ability to think, remember and make
decisions) for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 1 required supervision (helper provides
verbal cues and or touching as resident competes activity) for oral and personal hygiene, partial/moderate
assistance (helper does less than half the effort to lift, hold, or support trunk or arms and legs) for upper
body dressing, and substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort to lift or hold
trunk or limbs) for showering/bathing, rolling left and right, sitting to lying on the bed, lying to sitting on side
of the bed, and toilet transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 1 had not attempted to transfer to and from a
bed to a wheelchair, sit to stand, or walk ten feet due to medical condition or safety concerns. The MDS
indicated Resident 1 had a fall in the last month prior to admission, surgical repair of the hip, required pain
assessment interview, and had not had any pain in the last five days of the assessment.
During a review of Resident 1's Care Plan (CP) titled, Care Plan Report, initiated 3/28/2025, the CP
indicated Resident 1 was at risk for falls related to impaired balance and mobility and decreased
endurance. The CP interventions indicated for staff to ensure Resident 1's call light was within reach,
encourage Resident 1 to use the call light to call for assistance as needed, may have low bed with bilateral
floor mats for safety precautions, and may have pressure pad alarm in wheelchair and bed to alert staff of
resident attempting to get up unassisted.
During a review of Resident 1's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for April 2025, the MAR

indicated Resident 1 had two episodes of attempting to get up unassisted from Resident 1's wheelchair on
4/8/2025.
During an interview on 5/6/2025 at 12:40 PM with the MDS Nurse, the MDS Nurse stated no CP had been
updated since 4/4/2025 for Resident 1 getting up unassisted to ensure Resident 1's safety and apply new
interventions.
During an interview on 5/6/2025 at 1:36 PM with Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 2, LVN 2 stated Resident
1 had a Care Plan for falls which should have been updated to include more frequent monitoring such as
every hour as opposed to two hours since Resident 1 was at high risk for falls and kept getting up
unassisted on 4/8/2025. LVN 2 stated not having a CP and updated interventions would not allow nurses to
meet resident's needs and could contribute to a decline in resident's health. LVN 2 stated Resident 1's CP
should have updated interventions to the CP to avoid missed diagnosis and delayed treatment.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 2:04 PM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), the ADON
stated it was important for licensed nurses to update and create care plans to meet resident's needs by
implementing interventions to each resident's care area, prevent further decline, missed diagnosis, delayed
treatment, and identify any new issues that require intervention.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Fall Management System, revised
October 2024, the P&P indicated, It is the policy of this facility to provide each resident with appropriate
assessment and interventions to prevent falls and to minimize complications if a fall occurs. The P&P
indicated, Residents with high risk factors identified on the Fall Risk Evaluation will have an individualized
care plan developed that includes measurable objectives and timeframes. The care plan interventions will
be developed to prevent falls by addressing the risk factors and will consider the particular elements of the
evaluation that put the resident at risk. The P&P indicated, Resident's care plan will be updated.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to assess and manage reported pain for one of three
residents (Resident 1) as indicated in Resident 1's care plan and the facility's policies and procedures titled,
Pain Recognition and Management, and Pain Management, by failing to:
Residents Affected - Some
1. Ensure Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1 assessed and documented Resident 1's pain location.
2. Ensure Resident 1 received pain medication when Resident 1 complained of persistent pain to Resident
1's right lower extremity (RLE- right leg, including hip, thigh, knee, calf, and foot) on 4/7/2025.
These deficient practices had the potential for Resident 1 to experience unrelieved/uncontrolled pain that
could result in physical, mental, and emotional distress.

During a review of Resident 1's Care Plan (CP) titled Care Plan Report, dated 3/28/2025, the CP indicated
Resident 1 had pain of the right femur due to a recent right femur fracture and surgical intervention
following a fall. The CP interventions indicated for staff to administer analgesia (absence of pain)
medication as per physician orders and give one-half (½) hour before treatments or care, anticipate
need for pain relief, and respond immediately to any complaint of pain.
During a review of Resident 1's Physician Order (PO), dated 3/28/2025, the PO indicated Resident 1 had
an order for licensed staff to monitor Resident 1's pain level using zero (0) to 10 pain scale

During a review of Resident 1's PO, dated 3/31/2025, the PO indicated Resident 1 had an order for
Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen (medication to treat moderate to severe pain) oral tablet 5-325 milligram (mga unit of mass) give one (1) tablet by mouth every six hours as needed (PRN) for moderate to severe pain
from all sources.
Residents Affected - Some
During a review of another Resident 1's CP titled, Care Plan Report, dated 4/4/2025, the CP indicated
Resident 1 was at risk for hip fracture complications due to impaired mobility. The CP interventions
indicated for staff to monitor/document/report to the doctor signs and symptoms (s/sx) of hip fracture
complications such as unrelieved pain, impaired mobility, and pain after exercise or weight bearing.
During a review of Resident 1's Physical Therapy (PT- treatment that helps improve how the body performs
physical movements) Treatment Encounter Notes (PT TEN) dated 4/7/2025, timed at 2:38 PM, completed
by Physical Therapist 1 (PT 1- a healthcare provider who helps improve how the body performs physical
movements), the PT TEN indicated Resident 1 complained of discomfort on Resident 1's left lower
extremity despite being pre-medicated. The PT TEN indicated PT 1 informed LVN 4 and agreed to monitor
Resident 1.
During a review of Resident 1's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for April 2025, the MAR indicated
no documented evidence Resident 1 received Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen before or after the therapy
session on 4/7/2025. The MAR indicated no documentation the licensed nurse assessed Resident 1 having
any pain on 4/7/2025.
During a review of Resident 1's Medication Administration Record (MAR) for April 2025, the MAR indicated
Resident 1 was administered Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen 5-325 mg for complaints of pain (pain location
was not indicated) on the following dates and times:
a. On 4/9/2025 at 10:32 AM for pain level of 8 out of 10.
b. On 4/14/2025 at 8:56 AM for pain level of 8 out of 10.

PT 1 about Resident 1 having pain and giving Resident 1 pain medication. LVN 4 stated there were no
documented interventions, assessments, nor pain relief provided to Resident 1 on 4/7/2025. LVN 4 stated
the MAR indicated the licensed nurse (LVN 1) administered Hydrocodone to Resident 1 on 4/9/2025 at
10:32 AM, 4/14/2025 at 8:56 AM and 8:09 PM, 4/16/2025 at 8:20 AM, and 4/17/2025 at 8:18 AM but there
was documentation of Resident 1's pain location therefore the location of the pain was unknown.
Residents Affected - Some
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 10:09 AM with LVN 1, LVN 1 stated when a resident (in general)
reported pain, LVN 1 should ask the location, intensity, and onset of the pain, and what triggered the
resident's pain. LVN 1 stated when LVN 1 administered Hydrocodone to Resident 1 on 4/9/2025, 4/14/2025,
4/16/2025, and 4/17/2025, LVN 1 failed to document the location of Resident 1's pain which put Resident 1
at risk for missed or delayed diagnosis, inappropriate treatment, ineffective pain relief, and delay in timely
interventions which can further worsen any injury residents may have. LVN 1 stated she could not recall by
memory where Resident 1's pain was located.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 11:59 AM with PT 1, PT 1 stated that she provided therapy to Resident
1 on 4/7/2025 which consisted of the right leg range of motion, as well as the left leg range of motion while
Resident 1 laid down on Resident 1's bed. PT 1 stated PT 1 provided hip and knee flexion, with hip
abduction (the movement of a limb away from the midline of the body) and adduction (the movement of a
limb towards the midline) to the left leg/left hip. PT 1 stated PT 1 only took care of Resident 1 that day, and
her memory was blurry regarding actual events which was why she relied heavily on her thorough
documentation to recall events that day. PT 1 stated based on her assessment and documentation,
Resident 1 was able to roll to his right side while lying in bed, and partially roll to his left side, progressing to
sitting on edge of bed with assistance. PT 1 stated during the session, Resident 1 refused to attempt
standing or getting out of bed and began to exhibit agitation. PT 1 stated Resident 1 wanted to go back to
bed as Resident 1 complained of discomfort on his left lower extremity despite being pre-medicated prior to
therapy and was guarding his left leg due to complaints of persistent pain. PT 1 stated Resident 1 was
unable to describe or quantify Resident 1's pain level at that time. PT 1 stated PT 1 walked over to the
nurse's station to inform the licensed nurse (LVN 4) of Resident 1's discomfort to Resident 1's left lower
extremity and LVN 4 agreed to monitor Resident 1. PT 1 stated PT 1 could not recall how Resident 1 was
showing agitation other than refusing to continue the therapy session. PT 1 stated there was a possibility
PT 1 may have written the wrong laterality (preference for using one side of the body over the other) of
Resident 1's pain location.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 12:45 PM with LVN 2, LVN 2 stated when residents (in general) report
pain, licensed nurses should assess origin of pain, when the pain started, and depending on the pain level
should give pain medication as needed, reassess the resident for effectiveness of pain medication, and
document findings on the MAR. LVN 2 stated if the interventions were not effective, licensed nurses should
document the reason, notify the doctor and family, and ask for X-rays (type of medical imaging that creates
pictures of bones and soft tissues) or any type of diagnostic testing to rule out any unknown injuries.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 2:04 PM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), the ADON
stated licensed nurses were to communicate with staff and respond to any complaints of pain by assessing
the resident's pain level, location of pain, pain intensity, new onset of pain, determining if pain was
long-term, and check the resident's physician orders for any medication and/or treatment available to treat
the resident's pain. The ADON stated it was important to follow up on the resident's pain levels and
reassess the pain to determine if the treatment was effective and to ensure the

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to maintain complete and accurate medical records for one of
three sampled residents (Resident 1) by failing to:
1. Ensure Physical Therapist (PT- a healthcare provider who helps improve how the body performs physical
movements) 1 and PT 2 accurately documented Resident 1's pain location in Resident 1's Physical
Therapy Encounter Notes (PT TEN) dated 4/7/2025 and 4/14/2025.
2. Ensure Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1 assessed and documented Resident 1's pain location in
Resident 1's medical record.
3. Ensure staff documented the rationale for initiating a room transfer for Resident 1 on 4/7/2025 in
Resident 1's medical record.
These failures resulted in Resident 1's medical record to contain inaccurate and incomplete information and
had the potential to affect Resident 1's care.

and encounter for orthopedic (the branch of medicine dealing with the correction of deformities of bones or
muscles) after care, dementia (progressive state of decline in mental abilities), osteoarthritis (OA- a
progressive disorder of the joints caused by a gradual loss of cartilage [connective tissue that protects the
joints/bones])abnormalities of gait (manner of walking) and mobility (ability to move freely), and generalized
muscle weakness.
During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS- resident assessment tool), dated 4/1/2025, the
MDS indicated Resident 1 had moderately impaired cognition (ability to think, remember and make
decisions) for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 1 required supervision (helper provides
verbal cues and or touching as resident competes activity) for oral and personal hygiene, partial/moderate
assistance (helper does less than half the effort to lift, hold, or support trunk or arms and legs) for upper
body dressing, and substantial/maximal assistance (helper does more than half the effort to lift or hold
trunk or limbs) for showering/bathing, rolling left and right, sitting to lying on the bed, lying to sitting on side
of the bed, and toilet transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 1 had not attempted to transfer to and from a
bed to a wheelchair, sit to stand, or walk ten feet due to medical condition or safety concerns. The MDS
indicated Resident 1 had a fall in the last month prior to admission, surgical repair of the hip, required pain
assessment interview, and had not had any pain in the last five days of the assessment.
During a review of Resident 1's Physician Order (PO), dated 3/31/2025, the PO indicated Resident 1 had
an order for Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen (medication to treat moderate to severe pain) oral tablet 5-325
milligram (mg- a unit of mass) give one (1) tablet by mouth every six hours as needed (PRN) for moderate

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Some
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 10:09 AM with LVN 1, LVN 1 stated when a resident (in general)
reported pain, LVN 1 should ask the location, intensity, and onset of the pain, and what triggered the
resident's pain. LVN 1 stated when LVN 1 administered Hydrocodone to Resident 1 on 4/9/2025, 4/14/2025,
4/16/2025, and 4/17/2025, LVN 1 failed to document the location of Resident 1's pain which put Resident 1
at risk for missed or delayed diagnosis, inappropriate treatment, ineffective pain relief, and delay in timely
interventions which can further worsen any injury residents may have. LVN 1 stated she could not recall by
memory where Resident 1's pain was located.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 11:59 AM with PT 1, PT 1 stated that she provided therapy to Resident
1 on 4/7/2025 which consisted of the right leg range of motion, as well as the left leg range of motion while
Resident 1 laid down on Resident 1's bed. PT 1 stated during the session, Resident 1 refused to attempt
standing or getting out of bed and began to exhibit agitation. PT 1 stated Resident 1 wanted to go back to
bed as Resident 1 complained of discomfort on his left lower extremity despite being pre-medicated prior to
therapy and was guarding his left leg due to complaints of persistent pain. PT 1 stated PT 1 walked over to
the nurse's station to inform the licensed nurse (LVN 4) of Resident 1's discomfort to Resident 1's left lower
extremity and LVN 4 agreed to monitor Resident 1. PT 1 stated there was a possibility PT 1 may have
written the wrong laterality (preference for using one side of the body over the other) of Resident 1's pain
location.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 12:19 PM with Resident 1's Family Representative (FR), the FR stated
that FR 1 agreed to the facility's recommendation to move Resident 1 from Room A to Room B due to
Resident 1's roommate requiring to be isolated. The FR was not sure why the roommate required isolation.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 2 PM with the Admissions Coordinator (AC), the AC stated the facility's
process for initiating a room transfer for residents was to document the reason for the transfer and notify the
family representative. The AC stated Resident 1's family had requested a room change; however, the facility
failed to ask the family and document a rationale for the room transfer and neither the AC nor the SSD
could remember why the facility moved Resident 1 from Room A to Room B.
During an interview on 5/7/2025 at 2:04 PM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), the ADON
stated it was important for licensed nurses to ensure any resident (in general) pain assessment was
accurate, consistent, and thoroughly documented to ensure proper pain management and continuity of
care by rating pain level, asking pain location, aggravating and relieving factors, onset of pain, duration,
characteristics, and treatment. The ADON stated failure to properly assess and document the resident's
complaints of pain could result in untreated pain, delayed or missed interventions, decline in physical
function, and complications from over or under medication.
During a review of an electronic mail (e-mail) titled, Documentation Clarification, dated 5/7/2025, timed at
3:01 PM, emailed by the facility, the e-mail indicated PT 1 provided a written statement to clarify Resident
1's PT TEN dated 4/7/2025 completed by PT 1. The e-mail indicated per PT 1, PT 1 made an incorrect
entry when PT 1 incorrectly documented Resident 1 complained of persistent pain on Resident 1's LLE
instead of right lower extremity (RLE- right leg, including the thigh, knee, calf, ankle, and foot). The e-mail
indicated per PT 1, Resident 1's pain location on 4/7/2025 was on the RLE.
During a review of an e-mail titled, Resident 1, dated 5/14/2025, timed at 8:21 PM, emailed by the facility,
